Chapter 146 - Ready?

Roselyn and John were in the garden of the castle on the retro, near to the wood.

"I've never trained a banshee before. Usually, I don't train magic creatures nor fairies so I will try to apply the same method I applied to try vampires with you.

" John said taking few steps afar from her.

"We are going to fight.

" He then said, reaching about 10 meters afar from her.

"Your strengthen is surely your magic and the power to link telepathically with other people. Which is a very positive thing as you can trick people's minds and make them see things that don't exist.

"

Roselyn nodded, remembering when her sister had all the three of them hallucinate. And how strong her powers were to take the sage's life so easily.

Roselyn closed her eyes and her mind wandered to think about Sharon, all the memories they shared during their childhood and adulthood occurred in her mind. She remembered when they were happy together, during their childhood they always used to play together so cheerfully. She couldn't believe that just for love their relationship had been drastically changed forever.

As her visions increased she slowly began to lose her consciousness, it was like she dissociated from her body and was living the scenes she was visioning like if she was there.

"Rose… see … this plant died.

" Sharon cried pointing at a plant on the kitchen table. She was so short that she barely could reach the table's legs. Roselyn wasn't much taller but the few inches she had more than her sister allowed her to see more. Sharon stepped on her fingertips and began to lean against the table, climbing onto it trying to reach the plant.

The table began to shake and when Sharon finally touched lightly the vase, the plant overturned and precipitated from the table.

Sharon stretched her arms and managed to take it on the catch with her little hands.

She began to giggle and shake the plant cheerfully happy to be able to get it before it could fall. Roselyn smiled staring at the plant until they both widened their eyes and stared at the dried plant when it miraculously came back to life and her feet from being dried colored of intense vital green and little blossoms appeared on the short benches.

"You did this?

" Roselyn asked, but Sharon made a surprised confused facial expression.

"I don't know.

" She replied before her eyes began to shine,

"I am a fairy!! Flora had always been my favorite fairy from Winx.

" She exclaimed in a gracious full of a happy tone of voice. They always used to play to pretend they were Winx and Sharon always picked Flora.

***

"Rose!!

" John's voice was so aloud that Roselyn blinked few times waking up from her trace.

"Flora was my favorite fairy too.

" She murmured under her breath, before swallowing down and trying to look up at the sky to suffocate the tears that were teasing her eyes.

"Are you ready Roselyn?

" John screamed, Roselyn took few seconds before replying to him.

"I am.

"

"Begin with making plants grow. I will attack you so you have to defeat quicker and grow them before I reach you.

" John said, having Roselyn knit her eyebrows.

"How can I…

" She didn't even manage to finish the sentence that John already reached her.

"Don't waste time to talk, you have to act before to think. Try again.

" He teleported back to where he was but slightly farther to allow Roselyn to take advantage of some seconds.

"Ready?

" John said and after few seconds she began to rush. Roselyn stretched her hands and closed her eyes but couldn't even use the time to focus that again John reached her.

Roselyn scoffed, it was impossible, he was too fast. He took approximately ten seconds to reach her. How could he pretend she would defend herself so fast?

"Again!

" John once again teleported back. But this time Roselyn didn't lose time to stretch her hands and directly focused on the ground. She squeezed her eyes as hard as she could and she finally could feel her powers working when the wind began to brush.

But John reached her in time, leading Roselyn to slightly lose her patience and clench her fists.

"You're too fa…

" Roselyn tried to complain but John soon teleported back to his usual spot and from there screamed,

"again!

"

Roselyn clenched her fists and used all the anger she felt for not successfully controlling her powers and for all the things she went through, quickly enough the wind began to blush. From the ground, plants arose and flowers blossomed, she could feel John reaching her faster than before for the way his body moved the wind. She directed all her energies against him and roots from the ground growth and wrapped around John's feet tearing him against the ground.

"Good job!

" John exclaimed with a proud wide smile on his lips, then he easily ripped off the roots with his claws and quickly reached his spot before taking few steps closer.

"Roots won't be able to stop me, as you saw. So try to set fire onto the ground.

" John suggested and Roselyn's eyebrows knitted down, her face assumed a puzzled expression.

"Fire? I can set a fire?

" Roselyn didn't know if that was making her feel powerful or scared, probably a mixture of both emotions.

"Fire is an element of nature so yes, Roselyn, you can,

" John replied and Roselyn nodded gazing down at the ground, trying to think how she could set the fire. She knew the fire was something very dangerous, if she overused her powers she could set on fire the entire wood.

"Okay…

" Roselyn said, her voice didn't hide all the preoccupation that filled it.

"I know you can do it. Imagine the fire growing flame after flame, emanating so many sparks and the heat it emits then try to create a circle of fire around me as faster as you can.

" John's voice rang supportive and modulated enough to encourage her, yet contrary to his intentions his sentence made Roselyn even more concerned worried to disappoint his expectation.

"Maybe you're setting your expectations too high.

" Roselyn said but John soon shook his head,

"we don't have much time and I know you can do it.

"

Roselyn took a long breath and gazed up to meet his eyes. After staring at the light in his eyes of trust and support she nodded.

"I am ready,

" she breathed out.

John didn't let her the time to reconsider her decision and he quickly speeded toward her.
